Kinesio taping (KT) has been widely used to prevent muscle pain and to improve range of motion in clinical settings. However, no previous re-search has examined how long KT should be applied to muscle follow-ing damaging exercise. The aim of this study was to investigate the ef-fect of the duration of KT application on markers of muscle damage fol-lowing eccentric exercise. Thirty-two male subjects participated in the study and were randomly assigned to one of the following groups: con-trol (CON), KT-post, KT-30 min, or KT-24 hr. Eccentric exercise consisted of 2 sets of 25 contractions of elbow flexors using the non-dominant arm. Maximal isometric strength, muscle soreness (SOR), range of mo-tion, and creatine kinase activity were measured before,immediately after, and at 24, 48, 72, and 96 hr after exercise. The KT-24 hr group showed lesser muscle damage and a faster recovery time than the CON and KT-post groups. Both the KT-30 min and KT-24 hr groups showed lesser SOR than CON and KT-post groups. These findings sug-gested that prolonged application of KT had a positive effect on mark-ers of muscle damage.
